Ms. Green Jeans
Check out this interview (from Grist) of Tierra del Forte, the designer behind Del Forte Denim. The questions after the jump are a little more ‘fun’ than the first few shown here, so read on! 24 Jul 2006 What work do you do? I’m a designer and the founder of Del Forte…

Continuing the Green British Invasion, there’s an incredible article in
Ekovaruhuset – Translates to "Totally Justifiable"
If Eco Chick were a store, it would be Ekovaruhuset in Stockholm, Sweden. Tucked into the old part of Stockholm, between junk-riddled flea markets and souvenir shops toting more viking paraphernalia than you can shake a sword at, Ekovaruhusset showcases the most fashionably feminine eco-clothes we have ever come across…
The New Green Gem
Will Esquire, Harper’s BAZAAR, or maybe even O Magazine have the next big talked about “Green” Issues? This I thought to myself while admiring the NYC skyline from within Central Park on an amazing Saturday afternoon. There was one particular building I was starring at, that made me think that…
Roll it, Pack it, Charge it

ICI NYC Party!
I had a fabulous time at the first ICI NYC party last Wednesday, Jan. 25th at Libation. Everyone from the Manhattan green scene was there, from magazine editors and publishers to designers, stand-up comedians with a green schtick, models and PR flacks. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves immensely, and it was fantastic to…
